He backs his claims up with actual science.

He's not just saying "hey guise what if this happened", he's a fucking world renowned physicist with a real PhD working with others in his field for many many more years than anyone here has.

Guy is full of shit. He talks about shit he simply does not understand and promotes things without any scientific basis as truths and proven things (say multiple universes).

He then takes a bunch of sci-fi and blends that in with actual science and claims how this is the future or how most scientists believe this.

Michio Kaku is a book seller. He needs to espouse this pop sci bullshit in order to sell books to the rabble. He is in it for the money.

Lets be honest for a second. It's mostly a muh secret club thing. Hipster /sci/entists who want to feel superior to plebs for only knowing popular scientists. They can say "I think Lorentz work on relativity was more important than Einsteins', but he is pretty obscure, you've probably never heard of him."

Whatever, black science man macros make me laugh.

I like the guy, and recently got to see him in person at a convention, but he's so fucking full of himself.
One example is dismissing VR in the future as just a meaningless plaything, when there are ridiculous degrees of shit you can do with VR that AR just won't let you.
